Platinum Kanazawa Ascending Dragon 3776 Century Fountain Pen
Platinum announced the second pen masterpiece by the 17th century Japanese artist, Sotatsu Tawaraya, rendered in delicate Kanazawa-haku gold leaf, Ascending Dragon, inspired by the artist’s ‘Unryu-zu (a dragon in the clouds)’ painting. Ascending Dragon has been painted as an auspicious work inspired from the ancient time. Practicing the skilled art of Kanazawa, artisans carefully hand-layer the pen body with gold and silver leaf using Momi Chirashi, a centuries-old technique used in creating folding screens and paintings. Thin sheets of gold leaf are each hand-applied to create a sense of depth and an elegant glow to each one-of-a-kind pen. The Dragon is then added using a remarkable Hira-maki-e technique. The attention to detail in these exquisite pens is unsurpassed and will make your fountain pen a treasure for generations to come. The 3776 Century model has Platinum’s popular 14K gold nib, as well as its airtight ‘Slip and Seal’ cap mechanism. Each pen is packaged in a Kiri gift box. Cartridge/converter fill. Converter not included.
